    For me, with experience and total analysis on my own general and bidding directories, the future of general directories and the present earnings also is good for general directories..
    Bidding directories is something which didnt impress me as much as a general directory has.

    I think both have an equal chance to be not only a rewarding experience, but also profitable in the future. I have both general and bidding directories and both types are slowly giving me benefits.

    I think general directory gets more traffics. so buyer can show more interest on general directory.

    I think in Future, people will like Bidding directory More, cause bidding directory provide quick results and very impressive results. General directory will be useful for general users but corporate user will go for bidding directories

    I think its not relevant to compare the two as both of them work on different business model and requires different market approach.

    IMHO, both will grow and best players in respective areas will shine...

    I agree with few above guys.

    General directories are good. They have some meaning of their existence over internet.

    I don't understand why bidding directories are there. They look like spam and FFA pages.

    You are right Mr kumar. Many of these dropped domains selling links look horrible.

    Us bidding directory owners who promote, reject spam sites and work hard do not look like MFA crap

    Bidding directories are a relatively new concept and it will take some time before webmasters take a fancy to them.

    Bidding directories provide an opportunity to get a home-page link, which isn't possible in normal directories. This makes them attractive.

    bidding directories are the best!
    you can bid yourself higher to the top + good presentation = MORE traffic!

    General Directories are better.
    But i seriously believe that it's too early to make assumptions.

    Consider bigweblinks. Top bid of $3000 ;). Anyone can guarantee that 90 percent of directories, have yet not earned anything closed to that. Some are even struggling to make pennies. The rest 10 percent is/are what we call quality directories.


    So right now, general directories are better, but bidding directories have a bright future. ;)


    Earning is not easy my friend. Whether general or bidding, hard work and good promotions are required, unconditionally and undoubtedly.
